Filter by:It is a prospective case-control study with women diagnosed early rheumatoid arthritis. Three therapeutic failures were considered: failure 1 - to the first Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) (methotrexate); failure 2 - to the second DMARDs (leflunomide) and failure 3 - to the first immunobiological drugs (adalimumab). Ultrasound was performed bilaterally on the 2nd and 3rd metacarpophalangeal joints (MCFs), proximal interphalangeal joints (IFPs), and wrists (US10). Ultrasound measurements (qualitative and semi-quantitative) evaluated: 1 - inflammatory: synovial and tenosynovial proliferation in gray scale and power Doppler (0-3); 2 - joint damage: bone erosion (qualitative and semi-quantitative) and cartilage damage (qualitative and semi-quantitative). Clinical and laboratory variables were also assessed blindly at baseline and after 12, 24 e 48 weeks.
This is a phase Ib study to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of ginsenoside compound K (GCK) tablets in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. This study is to be run in China involving 10-12 sites. It will enroll approximately 240 patients to ensure 128 randomized with active rheumatoid arthritis. The treatment period is 12 weeks and total study duration per patient is approximately 14 weeks.
Identify Rheumatoid Arthritis patients diagnose within first 12 months since the beginning of the disease related symptoms. Initiate proper treatment according to international standards in order to achieve remission/low disease activity status.
To investigate the effect of two tight-control treatment strategies, aiming at 1) 2011 American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism (ACR/EULAR) definition of remission compare with 2) minimal disease activity (Disease Activity Index in 28 joints [DAS28] <2.6), on arterial stiffness in early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. To compare the effect of two treatments on arterial stiffness in Early Rheumatoid Arthritis
To compare the effectiveness of two treatment strategies in early rheumatoid arthritis (ERA), namely the delayed usual care and early intensive care, in Hong Kong. - The delayed usual care reflects the usual treatment practice in Hong Kong - The early intensive care includes tight monitoring and immediate adjustment of therapy
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of different doses of methotrexate (MTX) when taken with adalimumab in subjects with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of adalimumab in combination with methotrexate in patients with recent onset rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and to assess the long-term safety and maintenance of efficacy after treatment with adalimumab for up to 10 years.
